WASHINGTON (AP) The Latest on the House impeachment inquiry (all times local):
7:30 p.m.
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi says President Donald Trump and his Republican allies are afraid of the chief impeachment investigator, following a failed effort to censure him.
Pelosi said the GOP has not even tried to deny the facts of Trumps pressure on Ukraine to investigate Democrats. In a statement, Pelosi added a stiff defense of Intelligence Committee Chairman Adam Schiff, the the person of whom the President is most afraid.
She issued the statement after majority Democrats blocked a Republican effort to censure Schiff.
Schiff later tweeted that Republicans will be remembered for lacking the courage to confront Trump. So, he said, they consoled themselves by attacking those who did.

(38,436 posts)and some have decided to "retire" or not run for election in 2020. A few of the more intelligent Republicans are preparing for what is to come, and somehow try to save their party. That will be difficult because Trump is such a liar and a fool.
...After the 72 election when we lost by an incredible margin, there were many who stayed around to rebuild and hang in there no matter what. We survived and 4 years later elected Jimmy Carter as President. Trump demoralizes everyone, while McGovern was totally right about the Viet Nam War. It is hard to know what the future will be, because it is the future.
Results of 72 Presidential Election:
...............................................................................popular vote ....per cent......electoral vote
Richard Milhous Nixon (Incumbent) Republican California . 47,168,710.. 60.67% ..... 520
George Stanley McGovern Democratic South Dakota ....... 29,173,222... 37.52% ...... 17
